架构师提供的文本描述。曲靖是其中之一。曲靖市存在着两个不可能的奇迹：龙岩石碑和一个有400亿年历史的鱼化石。龙岩石碑标志着一种著名书法风格的发明，而鱼化石则改写了人类历史上的地质学。

Text description provided by the architects. Qujing is one of a kind. Two impossible miracles co-exist in city of Qujing: the Longyan Tablet and a fish fossil of 4,000-billion-year-old. While Longyan Tablet marks the invention of a prominent calligraphic style, the fish fossil rewrites geology in human history.

这些考古遗迹既是该项目的隐喻，也是该项目的主题。柏拉图认为，“任何曾经存在的事物都不可能停止存在”，城市及其公民的集体意识通过一系列重大项目的物化，等待着在当代环境下的复活。

The archaeological relics are both metaphor and subject matter of the project. According to Plato, “whatever once exists can never cease to exist,” the collective consciousness of the city and her citizens awaits a resurrection, in a contemporary setting, through the materialization of a series of significant projects.

博物馆是通过建筑质量中心进入的。观众被提升到一个具体的高原，因为他们开始他们的展览路线在一个战略点的空间。垂直广场由游行台阶和回响的悬空屋顶组成。毕业生悬吊的巨大屋顶提出了一个“反重力”的建筑声明，使观众在敬畏。

The museum is entered through center of building mass. Audiences are elevated to a concrete plateau, as they begin their exhibition routes at a strategic point in space. A vertical plaza is defined by processional steps and its echoing suspended roof. The graduate suspension of the enormous roof presents an “anti-gravity” architecture statement that puts the audiences in awe.

人们可以体验到城市所占据的广阔的空间和时间。空洞的强烈存在恢复了博物馆主题的引力：一部深刻的历史可以追溯到400亿年前。

One could experience the immensity of space and time the city occupies. The strong presence of the void reinstates the gravitas of the museum’s subject matter: a profound history dates back over 4,000 billion years.

从屋顶到地面的由混凝土窗帘构成的垂直景观。当观众透过景观，到达展区时，地理和人文时刻都会聚在一起。

A vertical landscape made of concrete drapes down from roof to the ground. As audiences penetrate the landscape and reach to the exhibition zone, geography and humanity converge at that every moment.

建筑的形式表现不是与场地的类比-梯田、化石纹理或书法笔画-而是具体与抽象、熟悉与陌生之间的对话。

Instead of assimilating into analogies of the site—terrace field, fossil grain, or calligraphic strokes—the formal expression of the architecture is in dialogue between the concrete and the abstract, the familiar and the unfamiliar.
